En route to India from Hong Kong we stopped over in Thailand for 10 days. The primary purpose of the visit was to secure Adam an Indian visa but Bangkok doubled as a convenient rendezvous with my good friend Nick who would be joining us for the next three months of travel. Thailand is a great country of extraordinarily kind people, beautiful environs and delicious food--it was nice to be back, even if only briefly...
The canals of Bangkok
Tuk tuks are ever-present.
Bangkok's sidewalk markets--there by day, gone by night.
You can seemingly find anything on the sidewalk tables: afrodisiacs and bass knuckles or assorted weapons and mini skirts....hey why not.
The food scene is largely based on the food cart culture.
Brew and satay--a magical combination.
Most of the carts are based on a bike frame...
...or motorcycle chassis.
Thai ice tea in the making.
Nick and Adam getting into the iconic beverage hours after Nicks arrival.
Kicking off Adam's 22nd birthday which conveniently coincided with our visit...Bangkok's nightlife is unreal, ha!
A couple days in Bangkok is more than enough, so we headed SE to the small island of Ko Samet.
The Thai islands are hard to beat!
